Dear friends, just sharing what I discovered today. I have found many posts ASKING about how to make any audio player working with set on standby mode. Maybe some of u know but for those who don't here is what I found today.
If u want to play music while set is in standby (screen off) :-
1- play WMP
2- press start
3- goto today
4- press power button, so that screen goes off thus set is in stanby
Thats all - WMP is still playing, Good ???
Enjoy!
Heh, no buddy, that doesn't mean anything. There are a bunch of registry settings that should be there. In all my new roms, this is taken care of. Other thing is that the headset should be plugged into the phone to make this happen

Do you know something funny? After you go to standby with the headphone connected and then remove the headphone, it continues to play . Seen it with AudioManager, dont know about wmp.
@mehra: It really depends on your particular device, there are a lot in which it doesn't work without reg tweak even when the headphone is attached, like mine, until as krazy said, you do the tweaking.
ok
i was lucky for no tweaking was required.

Hi, since coming from the Treo 700wx I don't miss too many things but I do miss not being able to continue streaming bluetooth stereo(WMP music) from the Mogul to my Motorola S9's with the device off i.e. just pushing power button once. My only option seems to be blanking the screen in WMP but that really doesn't lock the device from input. Is there any option to do this without enabling keyguard/locking? Maybe the HTC devices or the Mogul in particular just handle this differently than the Treo(among many other differences)? Thanks in advance.
I just got the Motorola S805's. I wish WMP had that feature built in. A program I've used before, that I can't seem to find on my computer, is http://www.handango.com/PlatformPro...=2&N=4294913805 95837&R=51696&productId=51696
This program worked perfect for the display issue!!
I have the S805's also (great headphones) and stream with SiriusWM5 which uses WMP. It's quite annoying to have the display on while streaming. I am not sure if TCPMP also has this behavior.
I just installed TCPMP and tried opening up an MP3 and putting the device in standby and audio pauses.
Man this blows.. even in Windows CE media players gave you the option to blank the screen to save battery life. With all the advances in software you would think this would be trivial.
yeah i just installed the trial version of PocketMusic. When I had it before I didn't have BT headphones. But I've tried just about all the settings I can think of, and all the results pause the music at some point. at this point though, I really don't mind locking up the phone with WMP. but it is annoying cause it's having to hit several buttons vs 1
if i were able to get PocketMusic to work with the display auto shutoff that locks all the buttons, i would only need to hit the power button to access it again.
TCPMP works for this...You have to go into Options -> Settings -> Hotkeys -> goto the 2nd to last option & set the "screen on/off" to what ever button you like...Now when you are playing music just hit that button & it will kill the display.
On a side note...Anyone able to get SiriusWM5 to work w/ TCPMP on the new WM 6.1?...I keep getting an error saying "Player: Audio codec (windows media audio) not supported by the player!"
I am getting the same error with TCPMP

I stand corrected. Using my old method of using device lock that blanks screen while using bluetooth, when I would fast forward WMP wouldn't light up like b4. Now i just switched to the included headphones and when I put it in standy by it shuts off. I might try that link i posted above.

OK You ROCK!!!!
This totally works and solves the problem with WM6 and SiriusWM5 for me!
I am streaming Sirius using Windows Media Player in Standby mode right now!!!!
can someone make this into a cab?
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\MediaPlayer\Preferences]
"UnattendedPlayback"=dword:1
"FastCacheReserve"=dword:00800000
"LocalCacheReserve"=dword:00800000
Here you go:
Use at your own risk. I installed it on a TytnII and it didn't work. The registry entries were installed properly but WMP stopped playing when I put it in standby.
Since I know how to edit my own registry and don't need a cab it's not worth my time to further test. If it's useful to you then great!
Anyway.. here is the cab you requested:

Enjoy!
awesome reg settings!! fixed the issue for me. Tried pocket music and like the EQ functions but will probably stick with WMP now that it will play in standby. Thanks!! Once again this forum comes through for the Mogul cult!!!
These settings did not work for me, the WMP stops and the device powers down. How did you get it to work?
I ended up using armstrom's Devicelock v1.2, a very clean solution to turn off the display and lock the buttons with one button press.

I assume this isn't phone specific? Ive always wanted to be able to shut the screen down to conserve power but still listen to audio
Not sure, maybe dcd version or verizon related? My DCD 2.1 works great in standby with WMP streaming over a2dp with those reg edits.
Try the HTC Audio Manager version1.02.919.713 and the program allows the phone to sleep while still playing without any changes. It also uses about half of the ram that wmp uses when the program playing with the library loaded up.

I can only find UnattendedPlayback in the registry. I can't find FastCacheReserve or LocalCacheReserve. Any ideas? Should I just change the UnattendedPlayback to 1 and not worry about the rest? Thanks
Thats what I did just changed it to 1 and reset and it worked.

That's what I used on my Apache (before it fell off my motorcycle on the freeway ). The HTC Audio Manager works great with the screen on or off.
I have a silly little problem. I put ROM Omega V25 XT with Co0kie's Home Tab v2.0 on my HD2. For audio and video playback I use CorePlayer v.1.3.2, which works without problems (tested on HD2 with the original ROM and the HD1 for a year now). The problem occurs when you switch off the screen, the sound just goes out though CorePlayer continues to work properly. In short the sound will not work if the screen is off. I tried the Omega v26 but same problem is present. Just don't know what to do. If you leave the phone and the screen turns itself off then the sound works but every 15-20s is interrupted. Does anyone have any idea. 3 different ROM did not help, reset did not help. Ideas?
I think there's a setting somewhere within coreplayer to set the sound to continue playing when the screen is off. Not sure though.

Option Play music in the background is active. The problem is that cell phone turns off the sound, but play still goes normally. After unlocking the phone can see that music still going. To reactivate the sound it is necessary to pause and restart music. If you use a player from the SENC and the sound works without any problems.
I have the impression that the ROM will shut down all applications to conserve battery which prompted me to turn off the power savings, but this did not help.
So, I just recently got a Samsung Galaxy S3 and I installed the same music application to my phone that I had before (HTC Desire). I never had a problem like this before. My problem is that, while playing music, the GPS interrupts the currently playing song (which is fine), but then there is an EXTRA interruption after this which also causes the song to play at a slight low volume, THEN return to normal volume shortly after. I remember that there was an option to enable/disable volume loudness protection or whatever and I THINK this is the culprit. BUT I CAN'T FIND THIS SETTING ANYMORE!! Does anyone know a solution to this problem? This has been bugging me for FOREVER. I use my GPS often because I often drive to locations I've never been for or barely go to, so this is a REAL pain in the buttocks. -- I also will be using it for the next few days!! :crying: So I would like to fix this, but if there's no fix, I guess I can bare through it for the next few days...
Running Serenity ROM v1.2 with Ktoonsez kernel.
EDIT: Forgot to also mention that this SOMETIMES happens with notifications and such, so I do not think it is the GPS's fault either.
EDIT2: Clarification: Want to get rid of that annoying second interruption that I mentioned earlier!! --I looked in developer options, sound, and EVERYTHING....still couldn't find it...
EDIT3: I searched online and nothing popped up useful (I think I wasn't searching with the right keywords. Kept getting results referring to headset not having any sound at all which is not right.)
Problem solved, thanks to everyone.
If anyone searches for this in the future, plug your phone in to headphones, or your car, or whatever. the unusable options under audio will light up. You can set it to several different settings.
No one knows what to do? please help me, I can't take this much longer haha.
Did you really expect someone to answer your question within a day? Give it some time

Besides , go to system/audio. Swipe to the left and turn on "audio leveling" in the enhancements page. Try that.

Oh, got'cha, for some reason i didn't think it would take to long as I'm assuming this has been a problem in the past... How long does it usually take for a response? thanks
Maybe u should post some more information, like car/radio type how did u connect the phone with the car? bluetooth or headphonecabel?
Did u tried ur phone on an other sound devices and is it the same effect? was ur iphone louder? did u set ur phone volume to 30?
i think u should try to find out whats exactly the problem, if ur phone volume is at 30 there isnt that much u can do on ur phone. the problem must be somewhere else.
What music did u tried to play? did u try to play some other music, maybe some from xbox music?

Thanks man, but I don't even see that option anywhere in my settings. the closest thing is "audio" and it has an equalizer but I need headphones.

car: Subaru Impreza Wrx, I use an audio cable (just a green cable with 2 audio jacks, one plugs into the head unit + the other plugs into my phone. I use this for my laptop as well, and the bass hits the way I would like when I have my laptop plugged in. I have noticed that when I am listening to music on my phone, it will drop to a very low level. I then turn off my phone, and turn it back on, and it will say the phones volume has dropped from anywhere between 10-20 instead of the maxed 30 I had it at. I'm not sure if thats related. I know its universal across my phone, as far as watching music videos I have on my phone, pandora, and youtube. It is strictly the phone adjusting my volume level, but telling me it is at 30. I somtimes get a notification that pops up and says "it can cause ear damage if you have your music to loud" and its really not that loud tbh.

Listen, the audio menu has two pages,
"equalizer" and "enhancements". Once you select audio in the system settings, it will show the equalizer page by default. Swipe to the enhancements page to select audio leveling.

I see this, but it is blacked out and will not let me turn it to on. :\ the only option I can use on this page is "flip to silence" :\
This is brilliant. It worked, I never tried having it plugged in. I had a whole bunch of stuff typed out to say thank you but I accidentally deleted it. So I'll keep it short and simple, thanks guys. I feel really dumb x)
If i start any music from the music app the volume is ok for like 0,5 seconda and After that the volume of the top speaker is almost not hearable. The other thing is sometimes i dont have the Problem. It seems like It just happen randomly. I dont know why and I really dont know how to fix it. I search a solution here but I couldn't find a solution.
So can someone help me?
Edit: Its not only happening in the music app. Also YouTube videos and in games the top speaker is almost not hearable
Have you reset your device? If you have, then it's probably a hardware problem
Sorry that i took so long to respond but the problem solved itself somehow. I also read in the sony forum and find something interresing of an official Sony Xperia support staff write.
I've got some more information about this and when the loudspeaker volume decreases after about one second, this may be caused by “Smart amplifier calibration”, a Sony Mobile protection system for speaker playback to prevent damages to the speakers. The system needs a calibration when you reboot your device the first time. This is why the received voice on the speakerphone appears to be unstable. The calibration takes about 45 minutes. It runs automatically in the background and doesn't affect the audio for normal phone calls.

Seems like these 45 minutes confuses some of us.
